In this study, residual stress distribution in multi-stacked film by MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical System) process is predicted using Finite Element method (FEM). We evelop a finite element program for residual stress analysis (RESA) in multi-stacked film. The RESA predicts the distribution of residual stress field in multi-stacked film. Curvatures of multi­stacked film and single layers which consist of the multi-stacked film are used as the input to the RESA. To measure those curvatures is easier than to measure a distribution of residual stress. To verify the RESA, mean stresses and stress gradients of single and multi layers are measured. The mean stresses are calculated from curvatures of deposited wafer by using Stoney's equation. The stress gradients are calculated from the vertical deflection at the end of cantilever beam. To measure the mean stress of each layer in multi-stacked film, we measure the curvature of wafer with the left film after etching layer by layer in multi-stacked film.

We consider the M/M/c/c queues in which the customers blocked to enter the service facility retry after a random amount of time and some of idle servers can leave the vacation. The vacation time and retrial time are assumed to be of phase type distribution. Approximation formulae for the distribution of the number of customers in service facility and the mean number of customers in orbit are presented. We provide an approximation for M/M/c/c queue with general retrial time and general vacation time by approximating the general distribution with phase type distribution. Some numerical results are presented.

Construction labor productivity, which is the greatest source of variation in overall construction productivity, is the critical factor for determining the project performance in terms of time and cost, especially during scheduled overtime when extra time and cost are invested. The objective of this research is to select an appropriate type of probability distribution function representing the variability of daily labor productivity during overtime. Based on the results of statistical data analysis of labor performance during different weekly work hours, lognormal distribution is selected in order to take advantage of easiness of generating correlated random numbers. The selected lognormal distribution can be used for development of a simulation model in construction scheduling, cost analysis, and other applications areas where representation of the correlations between variables are essential.

This research aims to divide the large enclosures according to summer and winter seasons, and to measure changes in the indoor thermal conditions. Also, with regard to air conditioning and exterior environments, it aims to identify the characteristics of indoor thermal environments such as indoor vertical and horizontal temperature distribution in large enclosures, temperature distribution in the audience's seating, indoor surface temperature distribution, wind speed distribution in the audience's seating, and indoor thermal comfort.

In this paper, the temperature distribution and thermal stress analysis of 50kVA pole cast resin transformer for power distribution are investigated by FEM program. The one body molding model (Model 1) and air duct model (Model 2) are designed and their temperature distribution are analysed. The temperature rise value is about 105.5 deg in the model 1 and 65.28 de in the model 2. The temperature change of secondary winding is more than primary winding according to load ratio. The concentration part of Von Mises Stress occurs at interface between glass fiber and epoxy.

A Bayesian zero-failure reliability demonstration test method for products with exponential lifetime distribution is presented. Beta prior distribution for reliability of a product is used to design the Bayesian test plan and selecting a prior distribution using a prior test information is discussed. A test procedure with zero-failure acceptance criterion is developed that guarantees specified reliability of a product with given confidence level. An example is provided to illustrate the use of the developed Bayesian reliability demonstration test method.

A study was made of the influence of butyl alcohol on the distribution coefficients of barium and mercury ions between the ion exchange resin, Dowex 50w-x8, 200~400 mesh and solutions containing hydrochloric acid, butyl alcohol and water. The determination of the distribution coefficients of barium and mercury are made by using the batch method. The distribution coefficients of metal ions decrease generally as the number of branches of carbon in the molecule of butyl alcohol increase. It shows that solubility in water and stereo-isomerism of the butyl alcohol have influence upon the distribution coefficient of barium and mercury.

This paper presents the integrity evaluation method of the windings in cast resin transformers using vertical thermal distribution analysis. The method is the result from comparing the temperature distribution in a sound condition specimen with that in the failure condition specimen layer-shorted by accelerated testing. The temperature distribution was acquisited by a infrared thermography system, and the Arrhenius equation was adopted to the accelerated testing. The proposed method may be available to detect the failures in cast resin transformers.

Effects of steel-skeletons on the geomagnetic distribution in building have been studied through the simulation and measurement of geomagnetic distribution at floor surface. Geomagnetic distribution was simulated by the finite element method, and the vertical component Z of geomagnetic field on the floor surface was measured with the fluxgate-type magnetometer. Horizontal steel-skeletons have a little effect on the Z distribution, but vertical skeletons disturb severely the Z distribution and result in the localized geomagnetic disturbance. This disturbance becomes weakened by the bypassing soft-magnetic plate and/or floor.

Based on the concept of the folding, the folding in X-direction and in Y-direction are defined and denoted by the X-Folding and the Y-Folding respectively. We consider a random variable X which follows a rectangular distribution "R(a, b) distribution" with two parameters a, b. This paper aims to apply the folding on the unit area P($a{\leq}X{\leq}b$) and also to study the proposed folding in each direction for R(a, b) distribution and the generated family of the corresponding constructed rectangular probability distributions. Some main properties of this family are reviewed. According to the proposed folding, we derive and discuss some important corresponding functions in closed forms.
